I am buying a massive, 4K screen, and might consider one closer to 8K instead. Since these screens are very capable of rendering the full brink of every pixel sent to it by a powerful GPU, what specs, ...

I would like to know if it is possible to not allow a process to trigger my CPU's dynamic frequency scaling feature. I'm running Linux Mint 17.1.
My specific case is that I would like to run BOINC in ...

I have an AMD FX(tm)-6100 Six-core processor that should run at 3.30 GHz, however upon trying to overclock the processor (which I never got around to doing) I have found that it is running at 1.4 GHz ...

I have an older screensaver that I like to play with, but it runs at super fast speeds which makes it a pain to use, so How do I slowdown a multicore CPU to enable older programs to run at the proper ...

I have a web application with a Ruby backend that does some stuff that is a bit computationally intensive. I develop and test the app on my rMBP with a 2.7GHz i7. I have the app deployed to a Linode ...

What should be the criterion upon I should decide whether or not to buy a processor its speed? or the number of cores? meaning should I seek out a processor which is fast but has 2-3 cores or is it ...

I have an Intel Core i7-4770S (3.10 GHz) that can go up to 3.9 GHz in turbo mode. Windows Task Manager can report it going up to about 3.5 GHz when playing certain games and probably goes higher every ...

How can I change the CPU clock speed of my computer? It is a Dell Inspiron 5720 laptop, running Windows 8.1 Pro. In Linux, I know there are ways of doing this from the operating system itself, instead ...

I am looking for any referencee about computer power statistics across the world.
My main interest is about real computing capabilities, so I'd prefer information about real processor power, and even ...

There are many types of CPUs, like Pentium, Atom, core 2 duo, core iX (X = 3,5, ....), But I always don't look at them this way! I always look at their speed which in GHZ unit and then compare them ...
